Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to the field of mobile terminal technologies, and in particular to a mobile terminal and a shell assembly thereof.
  • the present disclosure provides a shell assembly for a mobile terminal arranged with a camera assembly, including:
  • the present disclosure provides a mobile terminal, including:
  • the present disclosure provides a shell assembly for a mobile terminal arranged with a camera assembly, including:
  • the present disclosure provides a mobile terminal including a camera assembly and the above shell assembly.
  • terminal device herein may refer to, but be not limited to, devices that can receive and/or send communication signals connected via any one or several of the following connection methods.
  • a terminal device configured to communicate through a wireless interface may be referred to as a "mobile terminal".
  • Examples of the mobile terminals include but are not limited to the following electronic devices.
  • a mobile terminal 100 is provided.
  • the mobile terminal 100 may be a smart phone, a computer, or an iPad, etc., which is not limited herein.
  • the mobile terminal 100 is described by taking a mobile phone as an example.
  • the mobile terminal 100 includes a shell assembly 100a, a display screen 20, and a camera assembly 30.
  • the shell assembly 100a is connected to the display screen 20, and the camera assembly 30 is disposed in the mobile terminal 100.
  • the shell assembly 100a includes a shell 10, a camera cover sheet 12 and a metal sheet 13.
  • the shell 10 may include an inner surface 10a and an outer surface 10b disposed opposite to each other. It should be noted that the outer surface 10b refers to a surface of the shell 10 facing away from the mobile terminal 100 when the shell assembly 100a is assembled in the mobile terminal 100.
  • the shell 10 may be either a front shell or a rear shell.
  • the outer surface 10b of the shell 10 is exposed on a side where a display area of the display screen 20 is located.
  • the outer surface 10b of the shell 10 is a surface on a side facing away from the display screen 20.
  • the shell 10 may define a mounting hole 11 penetrating the outer surface 10b and the inner surface 10a.
  • the metal sheet 13 may define a first through hole 13a communicating with the mounting hole 11.
  • the metal sheet 13 is connected to the inner surface 10a of the shell 10.
  • the camera cover sheet 12 is installed at the mounting hole 11 and connected to the metal sheet 13. Since the mounting hole 11 communicates with the first through hole 13a, light passing through the camera cover sheet 12 can pass through the first through hole 13a. Light at a side with the outer surface 10b can enter a side at which the inner surface 10a is located through the camera cover sheet 12.
  • the use of the camera cover sheet 12 can meet the needs of passing light through the shell 10 and thus meet the shooting needs of the camera assembly 30. Specifically, when the shell assembly 100a is assembled in the mobile terminal 100, the camera cover sheet 12 and the camera assembly 30 are arranged facing each other, such that light can pass through the camera cover sheet 12 and enter the camera assembly 30.
  • the camera cover sheet 12 since the camera cover sheet 12 is disposed on the shell 10 through the metal sheet 13 and does not need to be connected to the camera assembly 30, the camera cover sheet 12 is prevented from being affected by the shape and structure of the camera assembly 30 and having a large size. In this way of connecting the camera cover sheet 12 to the shell 10 through the metal sheet 13, the camera cover sheet 12 only needs to meet the optical needs of the camera assembly 30. Since the camera cover sheet 12 is not restricted by the shape and structure of the camera assembly 30, the camera cover sheet 12 can be made as small as possible to facilitate the layout of multiple camera assemblies 30.
  • the display screen 20 may be adopted with a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen for displaying information, and the LCD screen may be a thin film transistor (TFT) screen or an in-plane switching (IPS) screen or a splice liquid crystal display (SLCD) screen.
  • LCD liquid crystal display
  • TFT thin film transistor
  • IPS in-plane switching
  • SLCD splice liquid crystal display
  • the display screen 20 may be adopted with an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen for displaying information
  • OLED organic light-emitting diode
  • the OLED screen may be an Active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) screen or a super active matrix organic light emitting diode (Super AMOLED) screen or a Super AMOLED Plus screen, which is not limited herein.
  • AMOLED Active matrix organic light-emitting diode
  • Super AMOLED super active matrix organic light emitting diode
  • Super AMOLED Plus screen which is not limited herein.
  • the camera assembly 30 may include a base body 31, a lens base 32, a lens 33 and a photosensitive element 34.
  • the base body 31 has a hollow structure, the photosensitive element 34 and other devices are located in the base body 31, and the lens 33 is disposed in the lens base 32 and faces the photosensitive element 34.
  • the lens base 32 has an end surface 321.
  • the end surface 321 defines a light entrance hole 30a.
  • the light entrance hole 30a can meet the needs of external light entering the lens 33. Specifically, the light can pass through the light entrance hole 30a and enter the photosensitive element 34 through the lens 33.
  • the lens base 32 is arranged with a thread 32c to connect to the base body 31 through the thread 32c, such that the lens 33 is arranged facing the photosensitive element 34.
  • the light is incident on the photosensitive element 34 after being optically processed by the lens 33, such that the photosensitive element 34 is exposed to light to meet the imaging needs.
  • the lens base 32 is screwed, the lens 33 on the lens base 32 can be adjusted such that the light processed by the lens 33 enters the photosensitive element 34 for obtaining better imaging effects.
  • the camera assembly 30 includes a plurality of lenses 33 arranged in the lens base 32 in an optical axis direction w to perform optical processing on the light incident from the light entrance hole 30a.
  • the first through hole 13a communicates with the light entrance hole 30a, and the diameter of the first through hole 13a is greater than the diameter of the light entrance hole 30a, such that enough light enters the light entrance hole 30a from the first through hole 13a, thereby meeting the imaging needs of the camera assembly 30.
  • An orthographic projection area of the metal sheet 13 on a reference plane partially overlaps an orthographic projection area of the end surface 321 on the reference plane, and the reference plane is a geometric plane perpendicular to the optical axis w of the lens 33.
  • the first through hole 13a can provide enough light to enter the lens 33 through the light entrance hole 30a, and an inner wall of the metal sheet 13 defining the first through hole 13a can be as close as possible to the optical axis w of the lens 33. That is, the size of the first through hole 13a can be made as small as possible.
  • the metal sheet 13 is able to adapt to the attachment needs of the smaller camera cover sheet 12, and in turn the camera cover sheet 12 only needs to adapt to the optical needs of the camera assembly 30. Therefore, the camera cover sheet 12 can be made as small as possible.
  • the end surface 321 may include multiple surfaces.
  • the end surface 321 includes a first ring surface 321a and a second ring surface 321b.
  • the first ring surface 321a is disposed within the second ring surface 321b and is joined with an inner edge of the second ring surface 321b.
  • the light entrance hole 30a penetrates the first ring surface 321a along the optical axis w direction of the lens 33.
  • the metal sheet 13 is superimposed on the second ring surface 321b, that is, projections of the metal sheet 13 and the second ring surface 321b on the reference plane have overlapping parts, such that this arrangement enables the size of the first through hole 13a to be small enough to meet the needs of light incident.
  • the miniaturization of the size of the first through hole 13a enables, when the camera cover sheet 12 is connected to the metal sheet 13, it is only necessary for the camera cover sheet 12 to consider the optical needs of the camera assembly 30 imaging, and the camera cover sheet 12 is not necessarily limited by the shape and structure of the camera assembly 30, thus the size of the camera cover sheet 12 can be made as small as possible.
  • the miniaturization design of the camera cover sheet 12 is beneficial to the layout of the multiple camera assemblies 30.
  • the orthographic projection area of the metal sheet 13 on the reference plane partially overlaps the orthographic projection area of the first ring surface 321a on the reference plane. Since the light entrance hole 30a is opened on the first ring surface 321a, when the metal sheet 13 defines the first through hole 13a, it is only necessary to consider that light incident from the first through hole 13a through the light entrance hole 30a to the lens 33 shall satisfy the camera assembly 30 imaging needs.
  • the orthographic projection area of the metal sheet 13 is partially overlapped with the orthographic projection area of the first ring surface 321a on the reference plane, and with this configuration, the miniaturization of the first through hole 13a enables the metal sheet 13 to meet the installation and fixation needs of the smaller camera cover sheet 12. Even if the camera cover sheet 12 is configured to be small in size, the metal sheet 13 can still connect and fix the camera cover sheet 12 to the shell 10.
  • the photosensitive element 34 may be connected to a FPC board 30b, the base 31 is bonded to the FPC board 30b by glue, and the photosensitive element 34 is received inside.
  • the lens base 32 is connected to the base 31, and the lens 33 on the lens base 32 is arranged facing the photosensitive element 34 to optically process the external light, thereafter the light enters the photosensitive element 34.
  • part of the structure of the metal sheet 13 is in contact with the end surface 321. Since the metal sheet 13 is in the shape of a sheet, the metal sheet 13 being in contact with the end surface 321 may indicate that the metal sheet 13 is stacked on the end surface 321, such that the size of the first through hole 13a on the metal sheet 13 can be made as small as possible, and the first through hole 13a only needs to meet the light incident needs. Accordingly, the camera cover sheet 12 connected to the metal sheet 13, while meeting the light incident needs of the camera assembly 30, can also be made as small as possible to realize the miniaturization design of the camera cover sheet 12.
  • the part that performs the optical function is circular in shape.
  • light entering the lens 33 and exerting the imaging function presents a cone shape with the optical axis w as an axis.
  • the end surface 321 is a surface of revolution with the optical axis w as an axis. Therefore, the orthographic projection of a contact position between the metal sheet 13 and the end surface 321 on the reference plane is circular.
  • the metal sheet 13 is a sheet structure
  • the metal sheet 13 and the optical axis w are perpendicular to the direction of the optical axis w.
  • the first through hole 13a may be designed as a circular through hole that just meets the light propagation needs, and the size of the first through hole 13a has been minimized.
  • the first through hole 13a can be opened as a square through hole or a heterogeneous through hole that is larger than the smallest circular through hole, only enough external light is required to be able to enter the lens 33 through the first through-hole 13a and meet the shooting needs of the camera assembly 30.
  • the metal sheet 13 and the shell 10 are bonded together by a double-sided tape 14.
  • the double-sided tape 14 defines a second through hole 14a communicating with the first through hole 13a, and the camera cover sheet 12 is connected to the double-sided tape 14 and covers the second through hole 14a.
  • first through hole 13a and the second through hole 14a are circular holes, and the first through hole 13a and the second through hole 14a are arranged coaxially with a center line of the mounting hole 11 as an axis to make full use of light that enters the camera assembly 30 through the first through hole 13a and the second through holes 14a.
  • This coaxial arrangement can enable the first through holes 13a and the second through holes 14a to be arranged as small as possible while meeting the shooting needs of the camera assembly 30.
  • the camera cover sheet 12 installed in the mounting hole 11 can also be arranged as small as possible while meeting the shooting needs of the camera assembly 30.
  • the camera cover sheet 12 includes a first surface 12a and a second surface 12b disposed opposite to each other.
  • the first surface 12a is flush with the inner surface 10a
  • the second surface 12b is flush with the outer surface 10b. Therefore, after the metal sheet 13 is connected to the camera cover sheet 12 and the metal sheet 13 is connected to the inner surface 10a of the shell 10, the metal sheet 13 can provide stable support for the camera cover sheet 12.
  • the second surface 12b and the outer surface 10b are flush with each other to make the overall appearance of the shell assembly 100a well-shaped, preventing the camera cover sheet 12 from protruding from the outer surface 10b and being easily worn.
